Utskriftsdato 24.6.2021 Schibsted ASA Innsendt Dato Schibsted ASA Innsendt dato: 19.09.2017 11:19 UtstederID: SCHA MeldingsID: 435021 Instrument: - Marked: XOSL Kategori: INNSIDEINFORMASJON Informasjonspliktig: Ja Lagringspliktig: Ja Vedlegg: Tittel: Schibsted ASA (SCHA/SCHB) - Schibsted adjusts organization to strengthen local execution and global scale Schibsted presents a new organizational setup with two operational divisions, named "Marketplaces" and "Media". The ambition is to enable Schibsted to further increase the speed of development and increasingly leverage our local competence and strong brands across more than 20 markets. At the same time, it will be possible to continue to capture the benefits of our global scale. The overall strategy of Schibsted remains unchanged; to be a global leader in online classifieds, to develop world-class media houses and develop new growth services. Within Marketplaces, Schibsted will continue to focus on further strengthening our strong brands and traffic positions in current markets, as well as leveraging these strong positions by developing the monetization further. A strengthened product portfolio within verticals should deliver more value to the customers, and hence form the basis for long term growth with operational margin progression. The Media division's core mission is to deliver quality journalism supported by continued digitalization and increased revenue share from digital products. At the same time, further streamlining of the operations and improved efficiency will remain a cornerstone of the long-term strategy. "We must take full advantage of our local competence and strong brands across all our markets. At the same time, we will continue to capture the benefits of our global scale. A more simple organization will be able to move faster in the market. We are convinced that the adjusted organizational set-up will enable us to compete in the most effective manner going forward, and also to do an even better job for our users and customers," says CEO Rolv Erik Ryssdal. Schibsted has invested significantly in enhancing our digital product and technology capabilities, and Ryssdal underlines that product and technology development will remain a driving force in Schibsted's future development. In the new organization, digital product development will be better integrated with the business units, thereby coming closer to the users and be able to gain more impact in the local markets. Schibsted Product & Technology will still be a driving force in the new "Marketplaces" and "Media" divisions. Most of the employees in the current Schibsted Product & Technology unit will be moved into the business line divisions Media and Marketplaces, but there will also be some global product and tech functions on a Group level serving both divisions. Both divisions will consequently benefit from strong product and tech capabilities and be better equipped to move fast in highly competitive markets. As a result of the new organizational model, some changes will be made in the Senior Executive Team of Schibsted. The online classifieds operations in Norway and Sweden, including FINN.no and Blocket.se, will join the Marketplaces division together with all other online classifieds companies in the Schibsted portfolio. The division will have revenues of around NOK 6.8 billion (2016 numbers) and somewhat over 3,000 employees. The Marketplace division will be led by Sondre Gravir, currently EVP Established Europe in Schibsted. He has been part of the Schibsted group management team for the last two years, and he previously held the position as CEO in Finn.no. 1 Utskriftsdato 1.10.2021 Media will consist of the publishing operations in Norway and Sweden (VG, Aftenposten, Stavanger Aftenblad, Bergens Tidende, Fædrelandsvennen, Aftonbladet and Svenska Dagbladet and Omni) in addition to Growth companies such as Lendo, Prisjakt, Let's Deal and others. The division will have revenues of around NOK 9.5 billion (based on 2016 figures) and approximately 4,000 employees. The new Media division will be led by Raoul Grünthal, currently EVP Schibsted Sweden. Didrik Munch, EVP Schibsted Norway, has planned to leave at 62 years in February 2018. Until then he will work with Raoul Grünthal to establish the setup and governance of the new division. Terje Seljeseth, currently Chief Product Officer, has decided to leave the company in order to take up a new position at the Tinius Trust, the largest shareholder in Schibsted. "Didrik Munch and Terje Seljeseth have played a huge part in Schibsted's development for many years. They have done an excellent job and put in a tremendous effort to propel Schibsted forward. I am extremely grateful for their contribution and wish them all the best in the future, says CEO Rolv Erik Ryssdal. Rian Liebenberg, Chief Technology Officer for Schibsted, will also be acting Chief Product Officer until the details of the new organization are in place. He will have a key role in the new organization. Gianpaolo Santorsola will assume a key position in the management of the new Marketplaces division, and Siv Juvik Tveitnes will become Chief Operating Officer of the new Media division. The other members of the group's Senior Executive Team, Trond Berger, Lena K. Samuelsson and Tina Stiegler will remain in their current functions at the Group level. Until the new organizational model is fully implemented, the current Senior Executive Team will continue to function as today. Contact persons: Investors/analysts: Jo Christian Steigedal, Head of IR.

  • Framing Mali Swedish Media Portrayal of an Armed Conflict
    Framing Mali Swedish media portrayal of an armed conflict Niklas Norberg Department of Media Studies, Department of Journalism, Media and C ommunication Studies (JMK) Master’s Thesis in Journalism 30 EC TS Journalism Studies Master’s Programme in Journalism (120 EC TS) Spring term 2018 Supervisor: Magnus Danielson Examiner: C hristian C hristensen Framing Mali: Swedish media portrayal of an armed conflict Master's thesis Niklas Norberg VT18 Abstract Research has shown that news media reporting on foreign affairs tend to rely heavily on official sources (e.g. Schwalbe, 2013; Entman, 2004; Lawrence, 2009). This thesis analyse whether this is the case in Swedish news media reporting on the armed conflict in Mali, where Sweden has troops sanctioned by the UN. A more broader perspective is also analysed: How does the news media portray the armed conflict, and are there any differences between national daily newspapers (considered more “sober”) and national evening newspapers (considered more sensational)? An inductive framing analysis is used to identify frames not available in previous research. These frames, together with frames identified in other studies, are then used in a quantitative content analysis to measure to what extent the frames occur in the texts. Among the most important findings were that Swedish news media did in fact rely on Swedish official reporting to a large extent. The two evening newspapers, Aftonbladet and Expressen, used Swedish official sources in approximately 60% of their articles. The daily newspapers, Dagens Nyheter and Svenska Dagbladet, used Swedish official sources in about 35% of their articles. The main source used was also analyzed: This showed that Swedish official sources were the most common, in between 23% to 62% of the articles.

  • Hur Objektiv Är Den Svenska Storstadspressen?
    Hur objektiv är den svenska storstadspressen? - En granskning av 2014 års valrörelse Erik Elowsson Institutionen för mediestudier Examensarbete 15 hp Vårterminen 2015 Medie- och Kommunikationsvetenskap Handledare: Göran Leth Examinator: Anja Hirdman Sammanfattning I denna uppsats används kvantitativ innehållsanalys för att pröva storstadspressens objektivitet gällande rapporteringen om valrörelsen 2014. Storstadspressen definieras som de fyra stockholmstidningarna: Aftonbladet, Expressen, Dagens Nyheter och Svenska Dagbladet. Syftet är att kartlägga hur dessa tidningar rapporterar om sammanhållningen inom de två politiska blocken, Alliansen och De rödgröna, vilka konkurrerar om att bilda regering efter valet. Objektivitet har operationaliserats som opartiskhet, vilket avser att medier balanserar uppmärksamheten och graden av positiv och negativ framställning mellan parterna i ett givet sammanhang. Resultaten indikerade att storstadspressens rapportering av valrörelsen, med avseende på sammanhållningen inom blocken, gynnade Alliansen mer än De rödgröna och att skillnaderna mellan tidningarna var betydande. För två av fyra tidningar kunde partiskhetsutlåtanden göras, där en bedöms som partisk och en som opartisk. Dagens Nyheters rapportering bedömdes som partisk, då Alliansens fick betydligt mer uppmärksamhet och nästan uteslutande positiv uppmärksamhet, samtidigt som De rödgröna fick avsevärt mindre utrymme och mestadels negativ uppmärksamhet. Svenska Dagbladet å andra sidan lyckades balansera sin rapportering mellan blocken, både i fråga

  • Ship of Shame Gender and Nation in Narratives of the 1981 Soviet Submarine Crisis in Sweden
    Ship of Shame Gender and Nation in Narratives of the 1981 Soviet Submarine Crisis in Sweden ✣ Cecilia Ase˚ On the evening of 27 October 1981, a Soviet submarine, U-137, ran aground and was stranded on a rock in a restricted military area near a naval base in Karlskrona, in the southeastern part of Sweden. The boat was discovered the next morning by a local fisherman, who alerted the authorities. Until 6 November, when the submarine was restored to a Soviet fleet waiting beyond the limits of Sweden’s territorial waters, it remained an object of marked military attention and intense diplomatic negotiations. Media coverage of the incident was extensive and made headline news in Sweden and around the world. From Sweden’s perspective, the submarine was a security threat and a flagrant breach of the country’s territorial sovereignty. After the delayed dis- covery of the boat, the Swedish military acted resolutely. Heavily armed troops filled the islands surrounding the submarine, numerous military vessels took positions nearby, and marine helicopters and air force planes circled the area. However, as the diplomatic negotiations became protracted, the sense of shock and disbelief diminished, and concern over national prestige and reputation became all the more rampant. A sense of danger returned with renewed force on the afternoon of 5 November, when Prime Minister Thorbjorn¨ Falldin¨ announced with restrained emotion at a press conference that the submarine carried nuclear weapons.1 This declaration was sensational news and made the violation of Swedish territory appear all the more serious. In the decade following the U-137 episode, the Swedish military was involved in numerous other submarine searches, evicting what were ostensibly foreign submarines from Swedish waters and dropping sink bombs.

    Curb your enthusiasm: on media communication of bioenergy and the role of the news media in technology diffusion Article published in Environmental Communication: A Journal of Nature and Culture (2012)6 (4): 512-531. DOI: 10.1080/17524032.2012.705309 Curb your enthusiasm: on media communication of bioenergy and the role of the news media in technology diffusion Tomas Moe Skjølsvold There is widespread agreement that the mitigation of climate changes requires societies across the globe to speed up the diffusion of renewable energy technologies. This paper pursues an interest in the diffusion of one such technology: bioenergy. It does so through a study of how bioenergy is covered and communicated in the news media of Norway and Sweden, countries where the diffusion of this technology looks radically different. Mobilizing a domestication perspective, it finds that the news media in the two countries ascribe diverging meaning to the technology, offering audiences clearly varied images of what bioenergy “is”. In other words, the technology is domesticated in different ways, suggesting that media coverage plays a role in systems of innovation and diffusion. How this affects the public, however, is an under analysed element in the innovation and diffusion literature, and the paper calls for further investigation into this matter. Key words: domestication, media analysis, bioenergy, diffusion, Norway, Sweden Tomas Moe Skjølsvold is a Ph.D. candidate at the Norwegian University of Science and Technology. Correspond to: Department of Interdiciplinary Studies of Culture, NTNU, 7491 Trondheim, Norway. E-mail: [email protected] Policy discussions about increasing the use of renewable energy tend to focus on technical and economic aspects of current and future technologies (e.g.

  • From AIDS to Assimilation: Representations of Male Homosexuality in Swedish Literature
    From AIDS to Assimilation: Representations of Male Homosexuality in Swedish Literature Timothy Ryan Warburton A dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy University of Washington 2014 Reading Committee: Ann-Charlotte Gavel Adams, Chair Ia Dübois Andrew Nestingen Program Authorized to Offer Degree: Scandinavian Studies ©Copyright 2014 Timothy Ryan Warburton University of Washington Abstract From AIDS to Assimilation: Representations of Male Homosexuality in Swedish Literature Timothy Ryan Warburton Chair of the Supervisory Committee: Ann-Charlotte Gavel Adams, Barbro Osher Endowed Professor of Swedish Studies Department of Scandinavian Studies This dissertation examines representations of male homosexuality in Swedish literature from 1968-2013. Since the initial visibility of homosexuality with the coming-out of Bengt Martin on Swedish television in 1968, dominant gay rights discourses in Sweden have been characterized by internal dissent over the “proper” image of male homosexuality. Rather than tracing is origins to the Stonewall Inn Riots of 1969, this dissertation focuses on the AIDS crisis as a crucial and pivotal turning point in the history of homosexuality, and as playing an integral role in the shaping of contemporary discourses on male homosexuality. The project expands the history of homosexuality in Sweden beyond legislative milestones, and analyzes key sociopolitical moments in Swedish history in order to locate the literary representations into a broader context. This study is organized into four chapters that examine the literary representations of male homosexuality. The first two chapters of this study offer analyzes of the literary history as iii well as the political and legal discourses through which ideas about homosexuality were circulated.

  • City in Fear”: Media Representations of Single Repeat Perpetrators and Gendered and Racialized Fear of Violence in Public Space
    “City in Fear”: Media Representations of Single Repeat Perpetrators and Gendered and Racialized Fear of Violence in Public Space Linda Sandberg Umeå Centre for Gender Studies Umeå University [email protected] Abstract In Sweden, several cases of single repeat perpetrators in public spaces have raised public concern. These cases all represent situations in which one individual perpetrator affects a larger group of people in a specific time and place. By analysing journalistic reporting of four cities/towns described as “in fear” based on the acts of three separate serial rapists/sexual offenders and one shooter, I intersectionally examine responses and reactions to such specific threat to be able to contribute to a better understanding of how fear of violence affects urban geographical imaginations. These four cases in Sweden (The Haga Man, the Örebro Man, the Hagfors Man, and the Malmö Shooter) involve a consideration of how one specific individual influences narratives of fear and crime as a generalized pattern of gendered and racialized fear of violence in public space. The analysis revealed two different but interdependent stories, one based upon the concern to keep women “safe,” and the other dependent upon racist threats and hate crimes. Published with Creative Commons licence: Attribution–Noncommercial–No Derivatives 520 “City in Fear” Keywords Fear; single repeat perpetrators; gendered violence; racist threats; public space; Sweden Introduction It means everything to Umeå that the Haga Man has been arrested. Not just the obvious facts that women can feel safe again and the victims can obtain redress through the Haga Man’s being behind bars.

  • End-Game Strategies in the Swedish National Tabloid Industry
    10.1515/nor-2017-0194 Nordicom Review 29 (2008) 2, pp. 325-334 End-game Strategies in the Swedish National Tabloid Industry KARL ERIK GUSTAFSSON Abstract Based on decades of comparative research on the national tabloid industry in the Nordic countries, a forecast is made, based on the product life cycle (PLC) theory, that the Swedish national tabloid industry will decline. As PLC theory is a blunt forecasting instrument, every precaution is taken; still a forecast is made that the No.2 tabloid will lose the present end- game to the market leader and disappear in 5-10 years time. End-game strategies as well as exit barriers are discussed in detail. The conclusions are valid for the national tabloid indu- stries in the other Nordic countries following the same pattern of development. In passing, the question is raised of whether Internet publishing will change the rules of the game. Keywords: national tabloid, PLC, declining industry, end-game strategies, exit barriers Introduction It took the Bonnier family, the biggest media owner in Sweden, 25 years to get the eve- ning tabloid Expressen started in 1944 in Stockholm, the Swedish capital. The family council could not agree on whether the planned popular evening daily would hurt the reputation of or even overtake the position of its quality morning daily, Dagens Nyheter, as the biggest Swedish newspaper. Some 25 years following its launch, Expressen hit a circulation record of 620,000 copies daily. Twenty-five years later, circulation numbers plunged to the lowest level ever. Now, 10 years after the plummet in circulation, which signalled a new negative trend, doubts could be raised as to whether the paper will be around another 25 years.

  • How Should Northern Europe Respond to the US-Russian Rivalry? Tormod Heier Norwegian Defence University College
    Arctic Review on Law and Politics Peer-reviewed article Vol. 9, 2018, pp. 267–286 Avoiding War: How Should Northern Europe Respond to the US-Russian Rivalry? Tormod Heier Norwegian Defence University College Abstract Since Russia’s annexation of Crimea in 2014, Northern Europe has increasingly aligned its national defence arrangements with the United States and NATO. This contrasts with the Cold War period, when Sweden and Finland were neutral, and Norway and Denmark put self-imposed restraints on their NATO memberships. Providing Northern Europe with a stable “buffer” between East and West, this so-called Nordic balance kept the United States and Soviet Union at an arm’s length. Since 2014 however, Northern Europe has de facto slid from “buffer” to “springboard” for US forces. This slide may counter Russian assertiveness, but there is also reason to argue that it may increase regional tension and unpredictability. If so, this may leave the entire region with less rather than more security. Using the case of Norway, it is argued that too close an alignment with NATO may have accelerated Norway’s role as a “springboard” for US forces. This is because cost- intensive reforms needed to accommodate US expectations abroad have also exacerbated critical vulnerabilities at home. Increased dependency on US forces thereby makes difficult the balance between deterrence and restraint vis-à-vis Russia.
